A great introduction for different depths with caveats about diving pools! Pictures of various types of recreational/diving pools were beneficial, to understand the appropriate (enormous) size to combine both functions of diving and recreational. Great work! more please ...
Great video! One point homewer, the familly home comes often too big for parents alone when kids are gone as the pool itself. but a larger pool will impact the home value. To get a diving pool for the kids worth it, if you plan to move from there as the kids get older. better selling price for another young familly to enjoy your pool years ahead ! .. I have a 16 X 22 feets pool with 3 feet 10 in shallow end a 7 feet deep in the deep end.. they said it was a non-diving pool.. but actualy may be an hybrid pool then.. since with the 6 inches water line i have 6 feet 6 of water in the deep end so over 6 feet 5 ! Thanks for the video!
Hello! Great video! I have 2 questions. We’re building our pool in January. We have two toddler boys. And chose 6ft for the deep end of our pool. We’re considering changing it to 5 ft. So that we can have more usable pool space. I’m worried the boys will inevitably dive into the pool. Should we keep it at 6ft to be safe or change it to 5 or 5.5 ft since they’re so small right now. Also, is it possible to add a slide for the pool after construction?
Industry says to dive head first in a pool you need 6.5 feet off of the non raised pool deck. Cannonball is less depth. A slide can be added later with the right depth and glide path. You will need a water supply line for the slide later so plan accordingly.
I have a 2' high old diving board that works. It's very stiff, but it does work. None of the kids use it. They are either scared of it or just not that interested. They enjoy swimming in the water and playing games. Diving boards are also ugly and they do waste space and when I get the pool refinished the diving board and the steps to climb out will be removed.

Wish we had a slide! We have a recreational depth pool and love it, but would love a slide.
Why would Dallas not allow a 6.5ft non diving board (hybrid) pool?
I live in prosper texas between preston and Coit road..is the ground very hard to dig?
There is a fair amount of rock under the clay layer but you can dig through the limestone with proper equipment.
